Training & Education

Introduction of the EHEDG training programme

In order to achieve an acceptable safety and quality of foodstuffs, training and education in hygienic engineering and design is required for all levels of employees in organisations concerned with the provision, maintenance and operation of food manufacturing systems.

EHEDG training is based on a variety of guidance documents on adequate hygienic design in different areas of food production which can be found under Guidelines.

The EHEDG training program provides the basis for a common European education, understanding and qualification in hygienic design.
